This would make networking on NT 3.51 and older, and Windows 95 RTM without updates possible.

This should actually be pretty doable - other than read_vector/write_vectored there isn't much to do. 🤔

Someone backported curl 8.4.0 to Windows 3.51, translating WinSocks 1.1 to Winsock 2.x with their own homegrown wrapper. This might be useful at least as an example, I guess.
